From the 16th St. Baptist Church to Emanuel AME: Two Eras, One Mindset
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/31593-from-the-16th-st-baptist-church-to-emanuel-a-m-e-two-eras-one-mindset
William C. Anderson, Truthout: The killing of four Black girls at the 16th Street Baptist Church and the recent killing of nine churchgoers at Emanuel AME Church are two different tragedies. However, the mindset that parallels the two is as old and as young as the United States itself.

Democracy or Corpocracy? The Rush to Expand the Algonquin Pipeline
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/31579-democracy-or-corpocracy-the-rush-to-expand-the-algonquin-pipeline
Charles Derber, Truthout: Nothing better illustrates the transformation of our democracy into a "corpocracy" than the current rush to expand the Algonquin pipeline. A sustained effort by ordinary citizens represents the best hope of undermining the corpocracy.

http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/31602-interfaith-collaboration-drives-movement-to-divest-from-the-israeli-occupation

Divide-and-Conquer Walker Thinks Equal Pay Is Divisive
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/31601-divide-and-conquer-walker-thinks-equal-pay-is-divisive
Brendan Fischer, PR Watch: Scott Walker is taking heat for claiming that supporting equal pay for women "pit[s] one group of Americans versus another." Walker is a governor whose divisive approach has helped make his state one of the most bitterly polarized in the country.

http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/31603-obamacare-subsidies-survive-supreme-court-ruling
Robin Marty, Care2: You could almost hear the hundreds of thousands of newly insured Americans cheer when the Supreme Court announced the government may continue to subsidize insurance plans for all people, regardless of whether they bought them on state health care exchanges or on the federal version.

http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/31605-a-farmworkers-bill-of-rights-in-new-york-may-finally-end-abhorrent-treatment

http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/31604-investigation-into-tamir-rice-s-murder-why-the-nine-month-delay
Marsha Coleman-Adebayo, Black Agenda Report: The critical facts of 12-year-old Tamir Rice's two-second-long fatal encounter with a Cleveland policeman are all recorded on video, but that's not enough for the county prosecutor, who has yet to bring charges against the cop.
An Unprecedented Uprising Against Impunity in Guatemala
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/31544-an-unprecedented-uprising-against-impunity-in-guatemala
Lindsay Bigda, Foreign Policy in Focus: A massive tax fraud scheme exposed in Guatemala this April might once have been viewed as business as usual in a country that has struggled with corruption at the highest levels for decades. Instead, Guatemalans got angry.
"A Bad Man's Guide to Private Equity and Pensions"
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/31598-a-bad-man-s-guide-to-private-equity-and-pensions
Yves Smith, Naked Capitalism: In the US, the objections to private equity financial engineering and asset stripping generally focus on the risk of company failure and job loss. But an important part of the equation often gets second shrift: how private equity kingpins use bankruptcy to get rid of pensions.
